I had attained my Chartered membership in RICS through AIMS Guidance Program conducted by Mr. Ramesh Palikila in 2011. AIMS provided me complete, valuable and effective tools for preparing and developing myself as a Contracts Professional in the Construction Industry. My eventful journey post MRICS with AIMS also provided me a professional platform where new experience, knowledge and skills could be acquired, demonstrated and shared with many Construction Professionals as a mentor. AIMS is highly recommended for young and experienced Quantity Surveyors and Contracts Professionals who aspire to develop further in their respective profession and career.

Motivation, Morale enhancement and Mentorship are the 3M’s that come to my mind when I think of Ramesh. He was instrumental in motivating me to get through the APC process of RICS. I have taken the Senior Professional Route for the chartered status and he was patient enough to walk along with me in the entire process and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has helped me to know my own potential. I am delighted to know that he has formalized his dream of empowering the professionals to advance their own careers. I wish him good luck and reiterate my support in his passionate journey.
